Why are the moms always overbearing, self-centered and treat their children like pets or trophies they can dress…
Because a lot of women, of most all cultures, are taught to form their self identity based on their (traditionally, usually male) children, and the female's worth is judged on this success or failure.
Avoiding being shunned is a powerful, very human motivator. I don't see it as selfish.
I'm currently reading about how neo-Confucianism changed gender relations; really interesting, especially how the earlier healing/spiritual practices held fast, unlike western ones that were completely crushed by Christianity.
Does anyone know why episode 9 is only displaying five minutes of the episode on Kocowa (in the US at least)? I waited a couple of days, and it's the same today.
It is sad that this is one of more charming kdramas these days... I just watched an older kdrama High Kick 3 and…
Lots of generalizing there. Why do you think kdramas are so popular in the US? A lot of "westerners" hate Hollywood trends. I'm sad to see Disney barging in especially.
Netflix are still miles ahead of Disney+, both in Korea and worldwide in terms of subscribers. But also in terms…
Disney+ doesn't have enough consistently attractive offerings, so we always save shows for my spouse's sci-fi preference and watch their K-dramas when we get a deal or have a long holiday and then resubscribe and binge watch.
I want to share an interesting article from the production side and how the dependence of streaming services have…
Well, having female narrative oriented content matters to me, and Netflix knows as they tag these for me. Many in the US love UK shows, which feature regular looking people, talented female lead characters, and better stories than those in the states, for example, "Happy Valley." Moms make the spending decisions here in the US, and we do love following handsome leads, but we also tire of being under represented and bored by stupid US offerings.
Should've get rid of the love triangle and paired Gayeong with Kowon as the second couple
I didn't think of it as a love triangle, more of an exploration of maturity. Perhaps Ko Won needed a more stable influence, and he did seem to mature during his community work. Gayeong leaves behind fantasy boyfriends for a kind and funny older man, who has also done some work on growing up.
Great drama but ending felt rushed…..I’m a little disappointed. I would have loved a wedding at the end.I…
I agree, rushed. Though I didn't need a wedding, and there were nice sentiments in the scene, I was disappointed when the garden lights came on and not much after, when it could have been really magical. And yes, sexy voice+ 😍😍
I am spoiled by subscriptions without ads; however, I can only find this series in the US on ad-supported Roku and Pluto. Sadly, Walmart+, which offers some Pluto series ad-free, does not include this one.
I'm writing all this to post where it can be watched here lately, but after watching two episodes, I wonder if I should continue.
I enjoyed the silliness/physical comedy of the first episode as a break from more serious dramas, but the second episode is already making me question the time/ad-irritation investment. I started watching as I like Kim Seon Ho, strong female leads, comedy, and mystery. I've seen worse on Netflix and wonder if they or Viki ever licensed it or might consider it. I hope so.
Netflix conditioned US viewers to watch on demand and then started returning to weekly drops. Personally, I like "Miss Night and Day" so much that I am skipping this weekend, so I can enjoy a several-episode finale.
I am watching this series in the U.S. on Viki. In case, like I did, you wonder about the ages of the judges, you might find this page of interest: https://asiasociety.org/education/korean-judge
Today is my first time seeing this actor as I've just begun watching "My Sweet Mobster", and I was surprised seeing fewer than expected main roles in his list. I feel ripples of Gregory Peck when I watch him act, and I hope he will acquire similarly prominent roles in the future.
I am so bad at waiting, I sneak and watch "Miss Night and Day" as soon as an episode is released and then watch it again with my spouse. He's probably figured that out by now, ha-ha, since I accidentally comment on things I'm not supposed to have seen yet.

Thanks for the oldies list suggestion.
